Word help sweating
Subject: Word help sweating

DOC is saying:


She is still experiencing a SL" Naganergic", I found "adrenergic":  


type of sweating, which is really causing her to have to take showers several times a day and makes it hesitant to go out. It sounds like something that medication would do.  The only medication that she is on currently that I think could do that is her estrogen. 


But I keep hearing NA in the beginning


Any help anyone?
